{"product_id":"personal-responsibility-alexander-brown-9781847063991","title":"Personal Responsibility: Why It Matters","description":"\u003cp\u003ePersonal responsibility is now very much on the political agenda. But what is personal responsibility? Why do we care about it? And what, if anything, should governments do to promote it? \u003cbr\u003eThis book explores the idea that individuals bear a special responsibility for the success or failure of their own lives looking at philosophical theories, political ideologies, and public opinion on the subject. Alexander Brown lends support to a recent move in political philosophy to deal with real world problems and shows how philosophy can contribute to public democratic debate on pressing issues of personal responsibility. Articulate, provocative, and stimulating, this timely book will make a significant contribution to one of the most important debates of our time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexander Brown\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1847063993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781847063991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Continuum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLondon Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/03\/2009 pg. 9\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2010 pg. 11","brand":"Alexander Brown","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46747672084735,"sku":"9781847063991","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_13924cf2-4d76-4d93-88da-624db636af51.jpg?v=1743584395","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/personal-responsibility-alexander-brown-9781847063991","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
